RH7 to RH8 build issue

Question

I'm working with some Russian colleagues on transitioning several hundred RH7 files to RH8 and we've uncovered a problem with the new builds:

The point is that during the build a certain warning appears in the log.
I investigated this issue and found out that it started happening after RH7 > RH8 transition.

In RH7 the first line in the file was:
<!doctype HTML public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Frameset//EN">

In RH8 it is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

As far as I understand, the question mark is what confuses the building system

Do you have any idea how to fix this in an effective way? I would be time consuming to edit every single file

Does anyone know how to fix this? Is there a script we can run to excise he "?"s or change the line?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Craig Della Penna

Hi Craig.This "warning" is from your application? What does it say? As far as the <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> tag is concerned this is integral to all RH8 topics. RH8 moved to using XHTML hence the different tag. Change this at your own risk but I wouldn't if you want things inside the help file to work correctly. If the question mark really is causing your build process to choke, you'll have to change the build process.Read the RoboColum(n) for a tips, tricks and musings on the Technical Communication Suite products.Follow the RoboColum(n) on Twitter
